Little Ninjas in the Making at Emirates Park Zoo & Resort Summer Camp

Whether it is for a learning opportunity or exciting activities, Emirates Park Zoo & Resort has it all. The touristic destination is hosting Aikido and Fighting Arts courses for campers of all abilities to participate in for a brand-new experience. Highlighting the importance on martial arts, the unique program will encourage kids to live an active lifestyle over the summer holidays while adapting better life skills for the future.

Aikido and Fighting Arts day camps are offered for kids aged 4 to 14, held in Emirates Park Zoo & Resort Heritage Village Hall every Sunday and Tuesday, where children will learn about self-defense techniques focusing on balancing and control of low stances.
